Quotes for ASHP install. BUS ?

[Post and beam]

Has anyone been surprised or caught out by this?

If you have been in the position of getting quotes for an ASHP install by professionals do/did you expect the figures were inclusive or exclusive of the £5k grant.

The reason being, i was talking to the .gov.uk helpline this morning and this was pointed out to me. That the grant goes to the installer

In England yes and you can see why it’s being abused. The process is slightly different in Scotland.

I think i know what the answer will be but if a ask one of the companies quoting if its net of the grant or not.

https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2022-11/FINAL Installer guidance V2_0.pdf 5.20 tells us that quotes should be for:

 

> the total quote amount, including any VAT, before the grant is deducted

 

The installers I talked to all did that, and also used the before-grant amount throughout the sales process. Didn't have any try to pull a fast one.
